Death Stranding RL

Game's Backstory:

You take the role of Sam Porter Bridges, a delivery man in a post-apocalyptic world where the dead are coming back to life as invisible anti-matter monsters (BTs). Your job, as a member of Bridges, is to rebuild America by connecting all outposts to the Chiral Network. To convince each outpost to join the network you need to deliver their cargo.  Also, beware of the MULEs, these fanatics want to steal your precious cargo!

About the game:

This game currently has 13 different types of procedurally generated zones and a unique BGM made by me for each one. SFX were also hastily produced.

Made for the 7DRL 2022, this game is my first roguelike and first libtcod game. I want to thank Hideo Kojima and the creators of the libtcod python tutorial and of course every member of the roguelikedev community.

This is a niche game, but I believe even people who don't know death stranding will enjoy it.

Tips on how to play:

You're always MOVING UP the map to progress to the next zone!

1. Lost cargo will give you extra items if delivered on the next outpost.
2. Watch out for your stamina, if you have time rest to regenerate it. If you don't have time, drink some monster energy.
3. USE YOUR ODRADEK to see which tiles will drain your stamina
4. When under a rainbow, the direction of the nearest BT will be shown by the Odradek (spiky thing with 8 directions) on your character's shoulder (on the ascii art).
5. Use smoke grenades to confuse MULEs and use Hematic Grenades to kill BTs when cornered.
6. BEWARE! Hematic Grenades will consume 20% of your blood! Don't use it if you don't have enough blood or you will die.
7. This game is about attention and planning, think about your moves in desperate situations.
8. More weight will make you worst at combat and loose more stamina but having few items might spell DOOM!
9. Watch out for the time left.

You win by completing 9 runs, in each run you go through 5 zones.

The game seems challenging at first, but after you get to know all the mechanics it's a matter of playing cautiously.

4 hours remaining fix: Grenades were spawning gas out of map bounds, now fixed

 Ps: Saving the game is kinda buggy rn, don't quit the game mid run
